Synopsis: “His eyes settled on her…piercing green embers of flame that revealed the ferocity of his pain and passion, yet still shrouded him under veils of ever deepening mystery that made every ounce of her ache to unravel him.”
Tegan Lockwood’s dreams were dead, sacrificed on the noble altar of duty before they ever had a chance to live. Her entire existence was disappearing into the abyss of apathy as she labored her days away keeping her family’s struggling business alive. There would be no emotion, no color, no beauty in her life. That is, until a mysterious visitor begins to draw her out of the darkness of her past towards something that will challenge the boundaries of her world, and unlock the most deeply held secrets of her heart.
Review:
To everyone who even thinks of reading this book (and surely must), please check Dallas Coryell's youtube channel. His voice is devine! And I'm not promoting him because he asked me so, I'm doing it because I want it. His songs are complete masterpieces that must be shared with everyone.
Now let's go into the review.
Just so you know how much I loved this story... I even read the book at work! I couldn't put it down and when I had to because I had some costumers to attend to, I was thinking of what was going to happen on the next scene the whole entire time. During 85% of the book I spent it with a huge smile plastered on my face. The other 15% I had a worried face because there were some heart-pounding moments in this book that almost gave two or three heart attacks.
We get to meet our British girl Tegan and our American boy Mason. We get to see how both try to pick up each others broken pieces and put them all back together. The friendship, the flirt, the romance, all the emotions shared between them were so captivating. Both baring secrets and both connecting with each other in a beautiful romantic way.
I loved how their relationship grew from time to time and not just something fast. The pull between them was there and the feelings emerged with it and grew from day to day, from each moment they shared together and each secret from the past that they revealed.
We could say ''don't judge a book by it's cover'' and this is regarding Mason. Tegan thought he was someone because of what was written on the internet, magazines and all those gossip places where you can get your fair share of fake info. But she was so wrong, her thoughts about the broken guy she met were so wrong and Tegan got to see that once she let herself know him properly. Tegan herself was a broken person, afraid to let people in but being in Mason's company changed her heart, her fears, it broke down her wall of protection.
Reading this book left a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart. Dallas Coryell's writing is so exquisite and the way he describes everything just left me amazed. I really want to read more things that he may publish in the future because I'm thirsty for his writing and stories he may share. This book deserves to be read with so much attention and love towards the story and everything written in it. An amazing author and an amazing book!
I would like to thank the author for sending me his book and letting me read this amazing creation of his.
